rarest- CALENDAR.

Application led October 10, 1923. Serial No. 667,603.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, Isaac Lnrnowrrz, a citizen of the .United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Calendars; and I do hereby declare thefollowing to be a full, clear, and exact description 0IP the in-V vention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and'. use the same, reference being hadv to the accompanying drawings, and to charactersV of reference marked` thereon, which form a part of this specication. r

This invention relates, generally, to iinprovements in calendars, and the invention has for its principal object to'iprcvide a novel construction of calendar provided with a rotary date carrying'element in combination withwhich isy provided a novel construction of adjustable marker adapted to cooperate with saidfdate carrying element' to mark or indicate a specific date thereon, said marker also having means for indicating ythe month data, etc.

Other'objects of his invention, not at this time more particularlyr enumerated, will be clearly understood from Lthe following detailedk description of the same.

The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings,yin which t- Figure l is a front elevation or face view of the novel calendar, made according to and embodying the principles of this invention; 'Figure 2 is apart side elevation or edge view and part vertical longitudinal section ofthesame; andFigure 3 is a tragmentary face view of the main body of adj ustable marker element removed from operative association with the calendar body.

Similar characters otV reference are employed in all of the hereinabove described views, to indicate corresponding parts.

Referring now to said drawings, the reference character l indicates a base or back member upon which the novel rotary date carrying element and associated adjustable marker device are mounted.

The reference character 2 indicates the rotary 'date carrying element, the same comprisingv a disk-like lbody of substantially rigid material, such asvcard-board or the like. Fixed in connection with the'upper portion ofsaid base or back member 1 is a journal zstud`3 which projects outwardly rom the face of said base or back member, and upon which said dislnlike body is centrallymountedso,as ytofreely turn or rotatethereon. Aleeper washer 4C is interposed between the head of said stud 3 and the disk-like `body to securely'retain the latterk against accidental displacement from said journal stud. Y.

The face of said disk-like body 2 is divided: into a plurality .of concentric panels or divisions, corresponding in number to the number of months inthe calendar year, sorthat one of said"v panels or divisions is provided for each month. vSaid concentric panels ordivisions are'intersected by a plurality of radial panels or divisions,l preferably lthirty-two in number, so as to subdivide each concentric panelfor division into a series of subdivisions within which are inscribed the days and dates of the several months of theyear, leaving one subdivision in each concentric panel or division within which is inscribed the name of the month Jfor each particular Iconcentric panel or division. I

A Fixed upon the lower portion of the face ot said base or back member y1, in central vertical alinement with the 4center of said disk-likebody 2, is a guide-member 5, the face or front portion-of which is outwardly spaced from the face of saidbase or back Y member l so as to provide a vertical guideway 6. The reference character 7 indicates the main-.body of a marlierdevice, which extendsfupwardly through said guideway 6, so as toA be vertically sli'dable therein. The upper end of said marker device body 7 is providedwith a pointer or indicator member 8,V which is disposedv to extend radially and upwardly across the lower portion of the disk-like body 2. Preferably the said pointer or indicatormember 8 is providedwith an opening or Window 9, which may be selectively registered at will with any one ot lthe concentric panels or divisions of the disk-like body 2 by sliding upwardly. or downwardly the marker device body 7. The front wall of said guide-member 5 is provided withtwo vertically spaced apartA transversely extending openings or windows, to wit, the opening or window 10 and the opening or window '11. The face of said marker device body isprovided with two data carrying sections, each section being divided into twelve panels or divisions corresponding in width dimensions to the width dimensions of the concentric panels or divisions ofthe disk-like body 2, and the spacing of the respective sections is such, that when the window or opening 9 of the pointer or indicator member 8 is registered or alined over a given concentric panel or division carrying date data for a given month, the corresponding additional data for the same month inscribed in the divisions of the sections of the marker device body 7 will be disclosed through the respective openings or Windows l and ll of the guide-member 5. It will be understood from the abovev description that a single adjustment of the marker device will not only disclose the desired date data for a given month as provided on rotary elementy or disk-like body 2 but will also disclose through the n windows of the guide-member 5 additional dat-a, such, for example, at the window or opening 10 the numerical sequence and name of the month with which the pointer or indicator element is cooperating, and at the windov7 or opening 11 the holidays occurring in such month.

Preferably the innermost concentric panel or division of the disk-like member 2 is devoted to the date data for the first month oi January, and then the successive outer ceeding concentric panels or divisions. The

data contained in the respective sections provided on the face of the marker-.device body 7 read-upwardly so that as the marker device is pulled. down the successive divisions containing thedata will be disclosed so as to properly correspondv with the date datar ofV the., particular month indicated on the disk-like member 2 by the indicator or pointer member. n

Tosascertain and disclose any. given day and date of the month, after the marker device is set cooperate with the concentric panel or division of the disk-like member 2 carrying the date data for the desired month the disk-like member is rotated-to disclose the, day and date of the month desired through the opening or-window 9 of the in, dicator or pointer member 8.

Fromthe foregoing description it willbe readily understood that my present invention provides avery simple, convenient and novel calendar vstructure in a very attractive form, and-one which readily coordinates and-discloses various data-inaddition to the day and-date.

I kam aware that some changes or variations in the described calendar structure may be Vmade without departing from the scope of my present invention; hence, I do not limit myself to the exact arrangements and` combinations of the several devices and parts as described in the foregoing specification, nor Ydo I confine myself to the exact details of the construction of the same as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

l claim:-

l. A calendar, comprising a back member, a rotary disk-like member mounted on the face of said back-member, said disk-like member having a plurality of concentric panels corresponding respectively to the months of the year and subdivided radially to contain the day and date indications for the respective months, a vertical guide-member mounted on said back-member below said rotary disk-like member, a vertically adjustable marker device slidably extending through said guide-member, and said marker device having at its upper end an indicator portion for cooperating with the subdivisions of said rotaryT disk-like member.

2. A calendar, comprising a back member, a rotary disk-like member mounted 0n the face of ysaid back-member, saidf disk-like member having a plurality of concentric panels corresponding respectively to the months oli the year and subdivided radially to contain the day and date indications for the respective months, a vertical guidemember mounted on said back-member below said rotary disk-like member, a vertically adjustable marker device Yslidably extending through saidV guide-member, said marker device havingl at its upper end an indicator portion for cooperating with the subdivisions of' said rotary disk-like member, the' iront; wallv of-said guideV member having windows therein, and the face ofsaid markerjdevice having inscribed thereonadditional data for.' disclosure through said windows in correspondence with the given day and `date subdivisions of the disk-like member for the particular month With whichsaid indicator portion of said marker device is adjusted to cooperate.
